The Cooperative Community-Driven Idle Game

IdleView is an interactive, always-on idle game specifically designed for the Twitch platform. Unlike traditional games, the core gameplay loop is controlled by the collective cooperative actions and commands of the viewers in the stream chat. It’s a massive multiplayer experience where everyone contributes to the growth of the evolving virtual world.

The Core Loop

The game world progresses in real-time, even when you're not actively watching. Viewers use simple chat commands (e.g., !job, !upgrade, !sleep) to gather resources, invest in upgrades, and advance the settlement's technology. Your ability to influence the game is based on being actively present in the stream and whether you have followed the channel.

A Persistent World

The IdleView universe is persistent. Every positive decision made by the community leaves a lasting mark. Join the stream, read the rule book, and start influencing the future!

1. Collection of Personal Information

We collect a limited amount of personal information about you when you interact with the IdleView game through Twitch chat. The information we collect is:

• Your Twitch User ID
• Your Twitch Username
• Your Twitch Display Name

This information is collected directly from Twitch when you send commands to our game through the Twitch chat interface. We do not collect any "sensitive information" as defined by the Privacy Act 1988.

2. Purpose of Collection, Use, and Disclosure

We collect, hold, and use your personal information exclusively for the purposes of gameplay. This includes:

• Creating and managing your in-game player profile.
• Attributing in-game actions and progress to your profile.
• Displaying your username or display name for in-game events and leaderboards.

The accuracy of your username and display name is managed by you through your Twitch account settings. We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, and from unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure.

While interaction with our game requires a Twitch account, you have the option of using a pseudonymous Twitch account that does not reveal your real name.

5. Access and Correction

You can access and correct your Twitch username and display name at any time through your Twitch account settings. As we only hold information provided by Twitch, we do not have a separate mechanism for correction. If you change your Twitch name, it will be reflected in IdleView during your next interaction.
